    Would 12, 10, 8 Work?

    I really appreciate the feedback man, I'm gonna work on my diet and do a few cycles like this and see how well it does. I'll take a look at the rehab options too and see about getting a referral for a specialist in sports meds, seriously thanks again!

    Would 12, 10, 8 Work?

    The pain is always in my elbows (tingly sort of feeling like the tendon might snap or something) and always when I am doing weights close to 5rm on one of the following: rows, lat pulldowns, overhead press, or chest press. The doctor couldn't find anything and his only suggestion was not to lift...

    Would 12, 10, 8 Work?

    Yes, having them set higher pushes me a little more and makes me feel like I'm making strength progress throughout the cycle too but I still busted out 10 to 15 reps on everything on my amrap day. Plus idk if you all noticed how I set the sets for each week too, 3 then 2 and then finally 1 for...

    Would 12, 10, 8 Work?

    I know there is a lot more overlap this way but going below 8 in reps (such as the 5s and negs in the vanilla routine) tends to cause a lot of joint pain for me and everyone in my family. I figured spreading it out further in the other direction wouldn't be very beneficial either. I am posting a...

    2 Year Break

    Well that just answered it for me, I will try some tinkering with the percentages I base things off of and maybe a few other little tricks to try to get some extra strength gains after the 5s and just try to be satisfied with what strength I end up with from following the standard program. Thanks!

    2 Year Break

    Well then @Old and Grey do you feel you have better strength gains because of it? Do you think the hypertrophy is lacking compared to the standard format? Any other pros or cons you have noticed? Aaaaand could you maybe post a sample cycle or portion of it so I could get a better understanding...

    Thinking of trying a Keto diet/carb cycling

    Bronkaid uses ephedrine sulfate where as Primatene uses ephedrine hcl, and yes hcl is easier to turn into meth but buying either of them I have had to show id so given the choice I prefer primatene as based solely on my own observation it seems to work better. According to some web sources its...

    Thinking of trying a Keto diet/carb cycling

    We have Primatene tablets which are sold over the counter for asthma and that is what I always used to use, I'm surprised they don't have something like that for sale in Australia.

    Thinking of trying a Keto diet/carb cycling

    It may seem that way if you have never done it but honestly you get used to it very quickly then its just normal and while you can get great results without it I feel like its the only way that you are going to get those exceptional results that almost nobody else has, I only quit because I...

    2 Year Break

    I am getting back to lifting after a 2 year break and need some help with with my program. I am only doing the same 4 exercises I used to use on HST: Deadlifts, overhead press, hammer curls, and calf raises. I also have my diet completely under control. Where I need help is with programming. I...

    Thinking of trying a Keto diet/carb cycling

    I used to cut at 12% and bulk at 6% and never had any issues with my strength and size continuing to increase but I agree you don't want to do any powerlifting meets while shredded or you aren't gonna hit the numbers you should be. This was a couple years ago, I haven't really lifted since then...

    Thinking of trying a Keto diet/carb cycling

    I've done carb cycling before, leangains style, which is also iifym, you should check it out if you haven't already. From information found on the leangains website I combined intermittent fasting with carb cycling and calorie cycling and iifym while doing hst (with cardio on the nonlifting...
